what is the command in windows to run rtrim?

You can find a discussion about it here (along with the command to add to your task scheduler).

How often do you TRIM?

On Windows the default TRIM schedule for SSDs is weekly, and the Optimize GUI lets you change that to Daily. But is this enough for Chia workloads? We know the creation of a single plot requires about 1.4TiB written. This means that on a fully virgin 1TiB SSD with little overprovisioning, the drive will have to start moving things around even before a single plot is complete, and thus eating into the WAF. Am I missing something? Or should we schedule TRIM every few hours?
